Cloud Infrastructure Provisioning - Google Cloud Platform

This lab will walk you through provisioning the compute instances required for running a H/A Kubernetes cluster. A total of 6 virtual machines will be created.

After completing this guide you should have the following compute instances:

gcloud compute instances list

NAME         ZONE           MACHINE_TYPE   PREEMPTIBLE  INTERNAL_IP  EXTERNAL_IP      STATUS
controller0  us-central1-f  n1-standard-1               10.240.0.10  XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX  RUNNING
controller1  us-central1-f  n1-standard-1               10.240.0.11  XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX  RUNNING
controller2  us-central1-f  n1-standard-1               10.240.0.12  XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX  RUNNING
worker0      us-central1-f  n1-standard-1               10.240.0.20  XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX  RUNNING
worker1      us-central1-f  n1-standard-1               10.240.0.21  XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX  RUNNING
worker2      us-central1-f  n1-standard-1               10.240.0.22  XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX  RUNNING

All machines will be provisioned with fixed private IP addresses to simplify the bootstrap process.

To make our Kubernetes control plane remotely accessible, a public IP address will be provisioned and assigned to a Load Balancer that will sit in front of the 3 Kubernetes controllers.

Networking

Set the region and zone to us-central1:

gcloud config set compute/region us-central1

gcloud config set compute/zone us-central1-f

Create a Kubernetes network:

gcloud compute networks create kubernetes --mode custom

Create a subnet for the Kubernetes cluster:

gcloud compute networks subnets create kubernetes \
  --network kubernetes \
  --range 10.240.0.0/24

Firewall Rules

gcloud compute firewall-rules create kubernetes-allow-icmp \
  --allow icmp \
  --network kubernetes \
  --source-ranges 0.0.0.0/0

gcloud compute firewall-rules create kubernetes-allow-internal \
  --allow tcp:0-65535,udp:0-65535,icmp \
  --network kubernetes \
  --source-ranges 10.240.0.0/24

gcloud compute firewall-rules create kubernetes-allow-rdp \
  --allow tcp:3389 \
  --network kubernetes \
  --source-ranges 0.0.0.0/0

gcloud compute firewall-rules create kubernetes-allow-ssh \
  --allow tcp:22 \
  --network kubernetes \
  --source-ranges 0.0.0.0/0

gcloud compute firewall-rules create kubernetes-allow-healthz \
  --allow tcp:8080 \
  --network kubernetes \
  --source-ranges 130.211.0.0/22

gcloud compute firewall-rules create kubernetes-allow-api-server \
  --allow tcp:6443 \
  --network kubernetes \
  --source-ranges 0.0.0.0/0

gcloud compute firewall-rules list --filter "network=kubernetes"

kubernetes-allow-api-server  kubernetes  0.0.0.0/0       tcp:6443
kubernetes-allow-healthz     kubernetes  130.211.0.0/22  tcp:8080

kubernetes-allow-internal    kubernetes  10.240.0.0/24   tcp:0-65535,udp:0-65535,icmp
kubernetes-allow-rdp         kubernetes  0.0.0.0/0       tcp:3389
kubernetes-allow-ssh         kubernetes  0.0.0.0/0       tcp:22

Kubernetes Public Address

Create a public IP address that will be used by remote clients to connect to the Kubernetes control plane:

gcloud compute addresses create kubernetes

gcloud compute addresses list kubernetes

NAME        REGION       ADDRESS          STATUS
kubernetes  us-central1  XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX  RESERVED

Provision Virtual Machines

All the VMs in this lab will be provisioned using Ubuntu 16.04 mainly because it runs a newish Linux Kernel that has good support for Docker.
